QNAP drive

Mounting a wonky (RAID) drive from a QNAP NAS on another machine.

Brief list:

  1. apt-get install mdadm
  2. Reboot, with drive plugged in
  3. Check lvdisplay that drive is present
  4. mount -o ro /dev/vg289/lv2 /mnt/roms
  5. cd /mnt/roms/ROMs/
  6. rsync -avze ssh . admin@kargath:/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/ROMs/

Other stuff:

  • Check /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf on original and target machines for the same drive ID
  • Or, if mdadm.conf doesn't exist: mdadm –examine –scan > /tmp/mdadm.conf
